Duo Siqueira-Lima
Duo Siqueira Lima is one of the most prestigious chamber ensembles having won the Profissionais da Música Award 2015 in Brazil and the International Press Award 2014 in the United States. Their work features music of the classical repertoire to popular music of Latin America.
Cecilia Siqueira from Uruguay and Fernando Lima from Brazil met at an international guitar competition in 2001 in Brazil. The jury could not agree on a winner - they shared first prize! The following year they formed the Siqueira Lima Duo and have since then made a phenomenal international career with concerts at the most visited festivals and concert scenes across the world. To name a few, they have given concerts at the Lincoln Center in New York, the New World Center in Miami, the Concertgebouw in Amsterdam. They have also made several notable TV appearances.
After a concert, the New York Times wrote that their game was “detailed as a Fabergé egg”.
Their versatility and ample musical interest have already resulted in four different albums:
Tudo Concorda - Brazil - 2002. Extensive repertoire, ranging from classical to popular music.
Lado a Lado - Ireland - 2006 Original arrangements of popular Brazilian music. Their second album is dedicated to Brazilian music, with original arrangements and playing for the first time brand new songs created especially for the duo.
